GSS EU Science Funding Gateway

Support will be provided to the ongoing Commission initiative launched on the common European Mobility data space, in particular on:

• making an inventory of existing data platforms and marketplaces (“data ecosystems”) which allow storage, processing or sharing of mobility and transport data. Bringing these initiatives together by mapping and providing a catalogue of transport data eco-systems, as well as describing the data types, data quality, related access conditions and (web) links.
• identifying gaps and overlaps of data currently covered (or not covered) by existing initiatives in view of possibly launching additional initiatives to cover such gaps.
• identifying common building blocks which could contribute to the long-term convergence of existing and new data-related initiatives in transport, serving private, public and industrial data sharing. Explore possible options for suitable sustainable frameworks for sharing, managing data exchange across existing and emerging data initiatives in the mobility sector. Include reflections on incentives schemes to motivate participants to provide data.
• identifying opportunities for integrating the mobility data space and/or data ecosystems in the emerging European data and cloud services infrastructure.

The data space will offer among others data on the transport network and its use in real time. Data can reveal sensitive information about critical points including potential vulnerabilities, hence essential for the Union’s security.

Targeted stakeholders: suppliers and users mainly represented by their associations, leading research institutes, and organisation with legal expertise and key competences in mobility, economics, data and cloud technologies.
